AfewUniversesBelowNormal Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 This could be an awesome happening. Large storm, low pressure, will probably have a huge eye. It could be sunny for hours in the middle of the storm. I want to chase. Let's organize a team, or at least get the idea started. My guess is that landfall will be further south, south Florida or something, but anywhere on the East coast would be good game. Maybe a North Carolina/South Carolina storm would be best because of how the land is set up, kind of rural. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never mind that possible 150mph+ wind, catastrophic storm surge, and flooding rain on each side of the eye. Definitely worth all that just to see the sun for an hour.

lilj4425 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 If it strikes SC, NC, or GA I would be possibly interested as it's only a few hours drive for me. TBD of course though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those pictures of the stars in Harvey are absolutely amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus it seems like he just wants to get a crew of randoms on this board and go right into the heart of a major hurricane. Very foolish unless if you have a lot of experience chasing hurricanes.

thess Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I do wonder if that Jeff guy from Harvey going viral is going to spawn copycats who don't really know what they're doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jburns Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Still watching to decide if I'll chase. Leaning to a yes. I have to guess at how close I think I can get to the coast without ending up cuffed in the back of a squad car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drive a big car real slow, wear a sweat shirt that says "I WANT MY SENIOR CITIZEN DISCOUNT" and wear a funny hat. Have your wife write your name address and phone number in the collar of your shirt.

As for the rest, I have a big car, I never drive slow, no matter what shirt I wear it looks good and I can still remember my name and address. Yeah, I know the name and address is to help identify my body. Don't be so damn negative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazey Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Can a mod or someone start a thread with just links to weather stations and radar sites along the projected path?? Some forum members have been kind enough to post them but they are getting buried in the main thread. Hard to find them. Thanks very much. I meant to post this in banter. Can't delete it.
